    - Live Messenger hangs when browsing for new display picture I've got Live Messenger v8.1 (maybe it's the most recent version...I dunno, cause get.live.com doesn't actually say what the latest version is) . Recently, I tried changing my display picture (which I've done many times before with no problems), but now, as soon as I click the Browse button, Messenger hangs to the point of needing a process kill (clicking anywhere in the Messenger windows leads to a Win chime, it's completely unresponsive even to the point of not giving a menu on the Taskbar when right-clicked). Anyone experience this error, and if so, is there a way to make it go away short of going back to Windows Messenger? Messenger's the only Live app I'll install (the toolbar was so unstable, I just don't trust software from that division any more, and this issue isn't helping), but consistant app hangs are something I can't tolerate.

    - Mobile Device I have one contact in MSN that has a mobile device contact next to it, however there's no number attached to it. I have tried to add a number, then remove it, I've tried to change the country code etc but nothing allows me to reset it and no mobile device option for that user. It's no big deal of course it's just one of those grrrr things :) Any ideas guys? -- Steve Parry MCP MVP www.gwynfryn.co.uk Tag: passport/live ID problem Tag: 92054

    - How do delete unwanted IDs from Windows Messenger? How do I delete unwanted user IDs from Windows Live Messenger? I've recently had a crash and had to reinstall everything. But when it came time to resurrect my WLM I'd forgotten my ID and password. I still haven't resolved that yet but I'm still hacking. In the meantime I have ALL these IDs that aren't mine.

    - Msn Messenger 8.5 Application Hangs Hi just need some guidance on an small issue. I am currently using msn messenger live 8.5.1302.1018. The issue I'm having is in regards to one particular contact on my list. As of recent everytime i go to engage an IM with that contact it cause my msn to hang. The only option left is to ctrl-alt-del to manually shut down the program. When I restart msn again it works with no issues I can IM anyone either online or offline with msn except with this one contact. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling messenger live but with no results. I have a notebook with messenger 8.1 installed and I do not have this issue with this contact. I was wondering if someone can provide some assistance on this matter as it is extremely annoying not being able to IM this contact for example as this person is someone I contact on a frequent basis. Thanks for any assistance. Tag: passport/live ID problem Tag: 92043

    - messenger doesn't work on a PC with office-LAN Hi all, I used msn messenger 7.0 on a PC with Windows 2000 professional working in a LAN of a big company. Now they changed my PC and, even if the windows is the same, messenger doesn't work when I re-installed it. I starts, try to connect and then blocks itself (freezes) and I'm obliged to close it from icon near the clock. Can anyone suggest me what can be happened? I suppose some problem with internet settings that can be different from those I used on my old PC, but I cannot say how... Please help me to configure it.

    - WLM 8.1 would not start I have Window Live Messenger v.8.1 installed on my WinXP machine. Sometimes it could be started, the other times it won't start... Clicking on its icon produces an hourglass for a brief moment, but nothing else happens. In checking the processes running, I see the msnmsgr.exe running as many times as I clicked on the icon. I was told that it's a connection problem. Resetting a router solves the problem, but soon the problem comes back. May someone help me to solve this problem? What should be changed in the WLM or router settings to allow the WLM go on line? -- Ilya Zeldes Fort Myers, Florida Tag: passport/live ID problem Tag: 92033

    - How to delete entries from my Allow List Probably a dumb question but i'm a novice user. I have looked for the answer in the program's help section but to no avail. So there are contacts that I have deleted from my Contact List, but they still show up on my Allow List under privacy settings. How do I delete these entries? When I right click on them, I have an option to move the entry to my Blocked List, but the option to Delete is greyed out and I can't delete these entries. Tag: passport/live ID problem Tag: 91999

    - Yahoo! and the future of the Internet http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/02/yahoo-and-future-of-internet.html Yahoo! and the future of the Internet 2/03/2008 11:45:00 AM Posted by David Drummond, Senior Vice President, Corporate Development and Chief Legal Officer The openness of the Internet is what made Google -- and Yahoo! -- possible. A good idea that users find useful spreads quickly. Businesses can be created around the idea. Users benefit from constant innovation. It's what makes the Internet such an exciting place. So Microsoft's hostile bid for Yahoo! raises troubling questions. This is about more than simply a financial transaction, one company taking over another. It's about preserving the underlying principles of the Internet: openness and innovation. Could Microsoft now attempt to exert the same sort of inappropriate and illegal influence over the Internet that it did with the PC? While the Internet rewards competitive innovation, Microsoft has frequently sought to establish proprietary monopolies -- and then leverage its dominance into new, adjacent markets. Could the acquisition of Yahoo! allow Microsoft -- despite its legacy of serious legal and regulatory offenses -- to extend unfair practices from browsers and operating systems to the Internet? In addition, Microsoft plus Yahoo! equals an overwhelming share of instant messaging and web email accounts. And between them, the two companies operate the two most heavily trafficked portals on the Internet. Could a combination of the two take advantage of a PC software monopoly to unf airly limit the ability of consumers to freely access competitors' email, IM, and web-based services? Policymakers around the world need to ask these questions -- and consumers deserve satisfying answers. This hostile bid was announced on Friday, so there is plenty of time for these questions to be thoroughly addressed. We take Internet openness, choice and innovation seriously. They are the core of our culture. We believe that the interests of Internet users come first -- and should come first -- as the merits of this proposed acquisition are examined and alternatives explored.

    - The end of Messenger 6.2? Well, it seems so. My 6.2.0208 running on my older installation (Win2K SP4, IE 5.5 SP2) was bog-stable (and still shows my web cam without problems, so it is just purpose they blocked the older release - typical MS hype & boogaloo!!) Now I get the common message that I MUST upgrade to sign in at all. I was a bit pissed off and very tempted to softICE the thing! Because... Messenger 7.0 IS allowed (thank goodness), but this means I have to upgrade my bog-stable IE5.5 SP2 (which also runs XMLHttp stuff perfectly, no matter how "ancient" it is) to IE6 which I do not want.

    - LifeCam Picture has flickering "lines" in picture Hello everyone, I'm using my LifeCam VX-3000 with its bundled software. It's updated to v1.3, the latest one, but I've had this problem since I began using the camera. When I preview my picture in the software the video preview has many flickering, horizontal lines in the picture which distort the color. Adjusting the focus doesn't help, and the camera is plugged into the fastest USB port available on my computer (It's only about a year old so I know the ports are fast enough). I even tried increasing the USB bandwidth in the picture settings in the software; the highest it can go for me is 5, and the automatic setting puts it at 4. This does not resolve the problem either. I doubt the product is defective, it's been like this since I bought it and the packaging looked solid when we bought it. Can anyone shed some light on how I can fix this problem? Thank you!

    - Spyware on the increase again Just a passing comment because I got a couple of these this morning and now I am grumpy LOL ... This is on the increase again ... Malicious spyware, pretending to be a social networking site or similar, cons people into using their Messenger login (or Yahoo, etc) and password to "log in" by sending a message or email purportedly from a contact. The site then appears to use the fraudulently obtained log in details to get into the user's account and send all their contacts emails or messages. I really don't know why otherwise intelligent people would hand over their log in details to another web site, but I wish Microsoft could come up with a way to block this activity. Not having a go at Microsoft because I know it is a tricky problem to solve, just wondering if anything can be done. BTW when I get one of the malicious messages - they are usually easy to spot - I politely advise the contact to change their password and secret question.

existing email account it keeps giving an error for the email address. His
address after the @ is the problem. It is @orange.fr, but if I try a
different ISP, say @free.fr, it moves on to the next step OK. It seems to
think that @orange.fr is an illegal extension resrverd for use by Microsofts
accounts.
anyone else had problems?
